Enzo Fernández came out to support Valentina Cervantes after a major uproar on social media. The footballer’s partner was the target of criticism over a video that went viral ahead of the match between the Argentine national team and England. In the footage, the couple’s children were seen singing a song against the English, and many users accused her of promoting hate.
But the Chelsea midfielder did not stay silent and, in an interview, explained the situation. ‘Valentina had no bad intentions. She is a person who always tries to instill values in the kids. What happened was just a game between them, nothing more,’ the player said, making it clear there was no malice.
According to Enzo, the idea was never for the children to get involved in a rivalry that belongs to adults. ‘We don’t let them sing that kind of thing. It was a spontaneous moment that went viral and people misinterpreted it,’ he added.
The controversy came at a heated time, just as the national team was preparing for the friendly against England, a classic that always stirs passions. But Enzo made it clear that his priority is family and that he will not allow his loved ones to be attacked over a misunderstanding.
‘Valentina is a great mother and is always looking after the kids. She doesn’t deserve to be told things that aren’t true,’ the footballer concluded, closing the matter. For now, the couple remains strong and focused on what matters: family and football.
